[Replicant] [vendor/replicant][PATCH 1/2] Always use libagl for system binaries that are too slow with LLVMpipe

From: Andrés Domínguez <andresdju at gmail.com>

When using LLVMpipe by default, some system binaries are too
slow to make the device usable.

This overrides the OpenGL implementation for the following
binaries:
- bootanimation
- surfaceflinger
- system_server

When loading a binary, the EGL loader will then check if
there is an empty file corresponding to the cmdline in
/system/etc/libGLES_android and use libagl if it exists.

For instance to make SurfaceFlinger use libagl, we first
need to look at /proc/<pid>/cmdline. Here it returns
/system/bin/surfaceflinger. Once we have that, we can then
create the following empty file to make it use libagl:
/system/etc/libGLES_android/system/bin/surfaceflinger
